That is a pretty good assessment. Very similar to the elite guys Pearl signed at Tennessee in that they were more athletes than polished NBA ready guys (outside Tobias Harris who was bought and paid for but as NBA ready as it gets from a skill standpoint). Not many guys like Harris are going to spurn the UK, Syracuses, etc. of the world for football schools in the SEC.
Pearl did a great job winning with those freak athletes at Tennessee but none of them ever developed basketball skills enough to get drafted.

I think Antonio Blakeney has the talent to have a long career in the NBA. The kid can score with the best of them and is freaky athletic.
